Dr. Bell-Metereau explained her work on a community board in San Marcos where she successfully worked with people across the political spectrum to accomplish the board's goals. She is running for a seat on the SBOE because she was asked to run and was encouraged by her daughter who has suffered under the current board's dumbed down curriculum standards which are supported by inaccurate texts chosen to meet a political agenda. She told us she respects the all volunteer writing teams and the hard work they do in an effort to give students the best possible curriculum but is appalled at the disrespectful attitude displayed by the incumbent who casually discards their work in favor of hastily crafted partisan based materials.

Dr. Rebecca Bell-Metereau promises to responsibly and ethically manage the Permanent School Fund without regard to personal financial rewards. I'm confident that if elected Dr. Bell-Metereau will be able to enhance the quality of our children's educations through respectful exchanges with the other members of the SBOE.
